KEYWORDS: On the rise

The Forecast Scorpio February 2012

With the silence of a lamb and stealth of a black panther, Scorpio is on the rise. The New Moon in Aquarius signals waking up and taking a critical path to accomplishment in specific areas of your life. This month’s lunar energies favour action on your part. Momentum is important if you are to arrive at your intended destination on time. Yet true to form, you do so imperceptibly, with only the slightest ripple of movement visible on your part.

This expansive solar energy is boosted by Jupiter opposing your sign. At its very best, this influence tends to signify a productive and growth-oriented time - a period of culmination bringing rewards for all your labours, and the urge to seek a more connected way of life. Think back to around 6 years ago, and what was set in motion for you then. A 12-year cycle of growth which began back then is ready to bear its fruits. Through the next six months you will have your chance to reap rewards, and get more in touch with who you are. This year has the potential to be one of great meaning and fulfillment. Your re-emergence is exquisitely timed.

Within all of this growth and expansion, a sense of perspective is best kept in mind. The danger with Jupiter is becoming arrogant, or getting excessive with demands. While you may rightly feel that anything is possible, material gain is not the biggest prize. What is worth more than gold is a feeling of authenticity and living a meaningful life. At its best, the first half of the year will help you find this. Satisfaction lives within.
